Allene transfer reactions. A new synthesis of terminal allenes

Abstract
Alkyl radicals, produced from alkyl bromides and iodides, react smoothly with triphenylprop-2-ynylstannane to provide terminal allenes; this new reaction has been applied to a simple and stereospecific synthesis of the naturally occurring allenic amino-acid, S-2-aminohexa-4,5-dienoic acid.
